CYCLE FINALE: I’ve given up on this series as being too repetitive over the years, a common curse of even the most watchable tenured reality competition series. But one of our TVWW contributors insists, quite persuasively, that The Amazing Race still matters. For his take, see Alex Strachan’s TV That Matters. And for the show itself, tune in CBS tonight at 8 p.m. ET for the finale to this latest global race.
